RIP. Very sorry now that I didn't get the chance to see them live.

Although I'm glad that nobody in here has replied with "who?" as is custom in AH.

I never got into Motorhead - all I know is Ace Of Spades and about how much of a hellraiser Lemmy was, but man do I love that ****ing song. Saw more shares of it on Facebook than of Motorhead stuff.

One of the greatest bassists known to man, the motorhead finally succumbed.

Some of my musical heroes on that space ritual album, Lemmy, Bob Calvert and Nik Turner.

Brilliant, thanks for posting that up

Was lucky to catch Lemmy once with the second incarnation of Motorhead in 1984 when Brian Robertson joined the group and a few American musicians for the Another Perfect Day album tour. Would've loved to caught the original line up of Fast Eddie Clarke, Philthy Phil Taylor and Lemmy in Iron Fist tour.

Honored on WWE Raw last night. He was behind a few of their theme tunes.

RIP War-Pig Kilmister

Motorhead for me was Fast Eddie, Philthy Phil & Lemmy...

They were never the same for me without Eddie & Phil, but the thought of no Lemmy & no Motorhead is like a chapter in my life closing

May the Gods of hard rock welcome you to Metal Valhalla to rock once more...

Shine on you crazy diamond, you will be missed...

Tony EH · 30-12-2015 2:42pm

Ah...the death of a legend.

As a metaller in my youth, I was never that big a Motorhead fan, I'll have to admit, but certainly admired their effect and contribution to the music and music in general.

Always liked Lemmy, though, and how he spoke about things in a refreshingly honest and straight forward way.

I don't often say nonsense like the following, but we really will never see his like again.

I love that album (Another Perfect Day).

Watched the doco about him on Netflix a few months back. What a guy. Really nice, really down to earth.

Love the fact he was so into the Beatles too.

Say Your Number · 30-12-2015 6:38pm

Love this quote, he hit the nail on the head.

"If you don't mind being alone it's a great gift, there's so many people now who can't stand to be on their own, silence bothers people and they can't read to alleviate it either, if the TV breaks down then they're f*cked, the world goes away from them"

RayCon · 30-12-2015 8:29pm

From that documentary .... ""I'm responsible for my actions, I dont need to hide behind nothing. The devil didn't make me do it, I did it... whatever I did'"

Enjoyed this yesterday. Such anniversary shows would likely have been promoted as a final tour at the time.

Acquaintance of mine had 19 Lemmy related status updates on Facebook last Wednesday. 19.

She had never so much as mentioned his name in the 5 years or so before that.

So what?

I'm a big Motorhead fan but never mentioned him either on Facebook.
There were a lot of sites that I have Liked such as Radio Nova etc who had status updates about Lemmy which came up on my page. Same with Scott Weiland and Philthy Taylor.

I don't really see the harm. It's pretty nice the amount of people paying tribute to him, even those who wouldn't have been bothered with his music. Shows what an iconic figure he is who'll be well remembered, and deservedly so.

19 is a bit excessive right enough I suppose, but ah well.

"If you're going to be a ****ing rock star, go be one. People don't want to see the guy next door on stage; they want to see a being from another planet." -

"I don't do regrets. Regrets are pointless. It's too late for regrets. You've already done it, haven't you? You've lived your life. No point wishing you could change it."

... playing his music and having a few drinks to see out the year.

From a great album that seemed to pass a lot of people by, for some reason.

Be anything but don't be gone

Not by me. I love that song and album. It's a shame they never played it or Shine live.

It never made the "old faves" part of the set list later on afaik, but there was a live album with those tracks on it with the re-issued album.

wandatowell · 31-12-2015 11:08pm

Ah it's very sad that he has passed.

So many stories and such great music.

RIP you horrible bastard.

Dyr · 31-12-2015 11:31pm

The man kept a high standard going for a long time. Some of the stuff they did in the 90s and 00s is every bit as good as the classic era

Remember being blown away by the title track of that album, I thought motorhead had no suprises in them

Did you ever see them on tour when they did play it?

I was expecting him by now to rise out of the grave on a motorbike, with a beautiful woman by his side, flipping his middle finger saying he fooled us all and roar off into the night. Damn you death

np: Motorhead - Stay Clean

bodhrandude · 01-01-2016 11:19pm

How did he die anyway, Lemmy was supposed to be indomitable and a super rock god, it was not possible that he could ever die. Lemmy was supposed to go on for ever like he was the first rock star from the stone age of man.

Lemmy RIP
